FAQ’s Christmas Tree Stand
Firstly make sure you choose one which will fit your Christmas tree trunk. If it’s a real tree, the taller the tree, the bigger the diameter of the trunk. Make sure you get a stand which is suitable for the height of your tree. Most manufacturers will give you a guide to maximum height.
Just fill your Christmas tree stand with tap water to prolong the life of your real Christmas tree. Make sure you top up the water everyday.
A 6 or 7ft tree will usually require a stand with a 6″ diameter space for the tree trunk to fit into and a heavy or stable enough base to support the tree.
